Leaving Huatulco, Mexico

 Good morning,

As Serenade of the Seas sailed away from Huatulco, Mexico, it passed lovely rock formations. 

 The last sight was of a private beach...

 ...as the ship moved on to its next port of call.

Stay tuned!

Dock Runners!

 Good morning,

Balcony guests watching the ship's departure from a port of call often get to see the race against time of dock runners.  Generally, there is a great deal of cheering involved, too.

Some people just can't seem to get back to the ship on time and are lucky if they make the ship after the departure time posted. 

 The cruise ship will only wait for late passengers if they are on a ship sponsored tour.  If you go out on your own, be sure to be back on time!

Words to the wise....

Ashore in Huatulco, Mexico

 Good morning,

Today's images were taken ashore in Huatulco, Mexico, a port of call of Serenade of the Seas. 

 There was local music on the dockside - please leave some cash.  :)

 Photo opportunities...

 A place to stop for a drink...

And, of course, an excellent opportunity to get a great photo of the ship!

I think the last image was the very best.

Thank you, Erica, for sharing your images with us.

All the best,

Lois

Happy Mothers Day!

 Good morning and Happy Mothers Day!

 We hope all mothers enjoy a beautiful day.

 These beautiful peonies grace our yard every year at this time.

They bring back wonderful memories of my Mom.

All the very best,

Towel Animals - Serenade of the Seas

 Good morning,

Towel Animals made by cabin attendants are a fun part of cruising.

I think Erica and Catherine determined this was a sassy rabbit... 

 ...and this is a critter showing the way.

Cute!

Stay tuned, there's more to come....

Osso Bucco for Dinner

 Good morning,

Catherine and Erica enjoyed the specialty restaurants aboard Serenade of the Seas.  

Pictured above is Osso Bucco. 

 Dessert was fabulous, too!

I've gained ten pounds just looking at these pictures.
